In a bar
On the boulevard
When it’s just getting dark
I still imagine you
On park avenue
And me driving away
I already forgot the last thing you did say
But I nearly died
When you cried
“I hope you read them every night before you close your eyes!”
I tried to lie
But I can’t do it this time
Come back inside the car
Weapon of mass destruction
My paper to a pen
With every penny spent
To make sure they were properly sent
If I could would I do it all again
I don’t know what good did it do to begin
But now I hate
Letters like
“a, b, c”
because I lost you as easy as
“1, 2, 3”
abc, 123, baby you and me
